Tia Sorensen
Chief of Staff
Verified
I’m a senior executive operations and customer leader with 20+ years of global experience partnering with founders, CEOs, boards and leadership teams to bring clarity, momentum and execution to complex businesses.
My career spans high-growth startups, scale-ups and public companies across technology, financial services and enterprise SaaS. I’ve worked at the intersection of executive support, customer success, operations and GTM, acting as a trusted right-hand to leaders who need someone commercially minded, calm under pressure, and deeply execution-focused.
I specialise in:
• Executive & founder support (CEO office, board prep, investor comms)
• Chief of Staff & executive operations
• Customer success & post-sales strategy
• GTM and internal operating cadence
• Product & operational alignment
• High-stakes communications and stakeholder management
I’ve led and supported organisations through scale, transformation, funding events, restructures, and rapid growth — building systems, teams and rhythms that actually work in the real world.
I’m known for being strategic but practical, highly trusted by leadership, and able to step in quickly to stabilise, organise and move things forward. Whether you need short-term executive cover, a fractional Chief of Staff, or an experienced operator to untangle complexity, I bring immediate impact with minimal hand-holding.
